Not sure why I'm awake given we're not leaving until 7am. We're going to stop at Meteor Crater on the way home.

Front Range, dude...
Today is the day when we pause to think of those who have led the U.S through times of feast and famine, celebration and struggle. Men who have been great generals and representatives, leaders of humanity, commerce and industry. Men who go on to become even greater after leaving office than they were before. Men who become humanitarians, authors, artists and...shoe salesmen.

Espresso the off to work I go

It's @Canada's family. My family, @slyfink's family, your family, we're all family!

I hereby swear that this holiday has no border constraints. All are welcome. Except delicate flowers.

Is today a holiday?
I get it as a holiday

in that we work like normal but I get a comp day to use for it that’ll make a vacation day elsewhere not count as vacation. Same with MLK and Juneteenth.

Holiday? Good thing we drove into Bell Rock trailhead at 6:00. Sedona parking is ridiculous.
So, easy blues this morning with the ladies, and Trailfork reds later today.

Night skiing was fun last night but it dawned on my that my skis need replacing, as I could not get an edge on icy terrain. So, I'll be calling around today to see if anybody has Rossi Sender 94's in stock. First though, I ran 9 easy miles this morning on a very hilly route. Day off from work but lots to do....

No day off, but WFH. It's a short week because I took Thursday and Friday off for the birthday festivities. Couple of meetings this morning, but nothing major. Should be a mellow week, but you never know.

Actually rode a bike yesterday. That shit’s kinda fun.

Started my workday with an email from a colleague in Euroland telling me to take him off an email chain. “It’s not my problem. Deal with it yourself,” is what I was told wrt an issue we are having with one of our largest customers in USA. I will enjoy having his head mounted on a spike outside my door soon.

Eta- It is his problem, bc he wrote the fucking code that keeps crashing.
